About this property

App. Eleonora B & B in ancient Villa, wifi and parking, meals, services available

Located in Impruneta, in the Florentine Chianti, the Eleonora Apartment is a spacious studio set in an authentic manor house, Villa Saladini, with 500 years of history, an incredible testimony of life in Tuscany at the dawn of the Renaissance.
The interior of the Villa, the magnificent living room with a stone fireplace and the small chapel with the family tombs, as well as the other rooms furnished with a rich collection of antiques, can be visited free of charge on request.
The property is surrounded by a large park with lawns and shady areas under the pines and secular cedars, beyond which there are hectares of olive groves.
Free WiFi and private parking.

Despite being surrounded by greenery, the Villa is located less than 1km from the town center, shops, restaurants and all kinds of amenities.
There is also a convenient bus line that connects the town directly with the center of Florence. There is a bus stop right outside the entrance gate.
The car is therefore not necessary to visit Florence, while it is recommended if you want to explore the countryside and the small villages of Chianti.

If you come by car, the Villa is located a few kilometers from the main roads and is in a perfect position to explore Tuscany.
We are located just 7 km from the "Firenze - Impruneta" exit of the A1 motorway and from the beginning of the highway that connects Florence with Siena.
From here you can easily reach all the places of cultural interest and the most beautiful places in Tuscany

The studio, about 35 square meters, enjoys a splendid view of the hills and consists of:
• Spacious room with a double bed, a 2-seater sofa bed, a kitchenette, a table with 4 chairs and a flat-screen TV;
• Bathroom with shower and washing machine.
Antique terracotta floors and high ceilings decorated by hand.
All furniture and paintings on the walls are old and belong to our family collection.
The walls are more than 50 centimeters thick, as was once used in this type of buildings to ensure a cool environment even in the hottest summers.
The Eleonora Apartment is located on the first floor of the Villa.
In the garden you will find a table and chairs for outdoor dining and deckchairs to relax under the shade of old trees or in the large sunny lawn.

Let us introduce ourselves:
We are Perla and Marco, we are married and we live in the Villa with our two children, Bernardo and Beatrice.
The Villa belongs to our family for many generations, ever since it was built over 500 years ago and has a special charm.
We love this place and we will show it to you!

We do our best to make guests feel as if they were at home.
Upon your arrival we will welcome you with maps of Florence and Chianti, tourist information including opening hours of the main museums, some useful guides, bus timetables, etc.
We also offer a discount at some of the best restaurants in the area.

Hoping to meet all your needs, we are organized to offer several additional services on request: homemade breakfast and dinner, car with driver for Chianti tours or guided tours, wine tastings, professional cooking lessons (we have an agreement with a cooking school to have a professional chef who teaches private lessons in the kitchen of the Villa), non-professional cooking lessons (Perla will be happy to teach you how to prepare homemade pasta), guided tours in Florence with a professional guide, service shuttle to and from the airport or the station ... and much more.
If you decide to book, we will send you a detailed list of all services with prices and if you want more, try asking and we will try to accommodate you.

Visit us: you will love it !!

Belle propriété
Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour dans l'appartement Eleonora avec très belle vue sur le parc et les collines. Bel endroit très bien situé pour visiter Florence et la région du Chianti. Perla et Marco sont adorables et nous les remercions pour leur accueil chaleureux.

About the host

Hosted by Perla and Marco

Host profile image
I live in Impruneta, a small town at the edge of Chianti, a few kilometers from Florence.
I'm married with Marco, who manages with me the apartments we rent.
The Villa where we live belonged to our family for generations and we love it.
We have 2 wonderful kids: Bernardo and Beatrice, they are the joy of our life.
We like countryside, good food and good wine ... we wait for you!

Why they chose this property

Marco and I have decided to rent to have an income that allows us to keep the property and not to sell it.
We did not want to be us to sell a property that belongs to our family for 500 years!

What makes this property unique

This place is more unique than rare. It is a place with an ancient soul, a place where time has stopped and we are proud and glad to be able to share it.
